Same Info:

Last week, online reports surfaced claiming that Konami was prepping a remake of its original survival horror action adventure Silent Hill, which first saw release on the PlayStation in 1999. At the time, a Konami representative confirmed for GameSpot that an official announcement for the game was en route. And true to its word, the publisher revealed today that Silent Hill: Shattered Memories will arrive for the Wii, PlayStation 2, and PSP this fall.

Calling Silent Hill: Shattered Memories a reimagining rather than a remake, Konami said that the game will again follow Harry Mason as he searches the eerie town of Silent Hill in an effort to find his daughter. However, Shattered Memories will offer a number of new wrinkles on the original, with Konami promising "an interactive user interface" as well as a revamped puzzle system.

The most significant change to Shattered Memories will be the psych profile system. Speaking to Nintendo Power, producer Tomm Hulett commented: "One of Shattered Memories' most significant and intriguing additions--your answers actually affect how the game unfolds. And it doesn't end there. The game 'watches' you constantly, and your behavior throughout can determine when you'll meet certain characters, which scenes you'll witness, and a variety of other factors."

With 2008's Silent Hill: Homecoming released for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC, Konami noted that Shattered Memories will be the first installment in the series released for the Wii. The Nintendo edition will support the Wii Remote's motion-sensing capabilities, with players using the controller as a stand-in for a flashlight and cell phone, which aid them in finding clues.

A remake on the Wii, PS2 and PSP.... ugh, no Konami don't. Don't destroy the beautiful memories you laid down, we know you're in need of money, but this is scraping the barrel.

I think it has potential, especially on the Wii. They could use the somewhat shaky motion controls to make it feel like a moment of desperation each time you attempt to stave off those white child things.

Yeah, shaking a remote always adds depth to gameplay. Which is why dildo. Exactly.

Awesome. There's one gameplay screen and it looks like a PS1 game. My dreams have come true.

There's actually several, and I think you've never seen PS1 games. It looks no worse than SH3 visually. Real time shadows and all. Heck, you thought only one image is in-game, that says a lot. Especially considering they're shitty quality scanned page images. And why comment in this thread about what you see in a different one? Lol.

I never said in game, there's only one genuine gameplay shot, the others cover art and an in game cut scene. Looks like it didn't need a remake, they should have just ported the PS1 added in some shaders and called it a day.

My comment still applies even with your clarification actually. Not that you really meant that since in game cut scenes look the same as gameplay anyway, but, yeah, there's several gameplay screenshots. And no it still doesn't look like a PS1 game. Lol. Keep trying though.
